WinXP: open explorer, etc, so you can see the file itself.

right click, properties.

In the second subsection of that window will be an icon, and the text: "Open with..." click that, browse to you location of wordpad, etc, and doubleclick the executable of wordpad, etc.

does the file open in word perfect correctly? if it does, try saving it as a txt or rtf file, something wordpad can understand.


now officially a troll, i guess. used to have a black 96 SE, until it broke down one too many times. now I'm hunting for a motorycle.
